Affordable Waterfront Living in the highly desired Bayside Estates! Fixer-upper on a canal is ready for investors / flippers. Most of the damaged homes in Bayside Estates left standing after Hurricane Ian are sold and being renovated. The time is right. You have a clean slate to start from - partly remediated, down to the studs and new plywood floors with new electrical wiring + plugs + switches + boxes, from 4 feet to the floor. New underside insulation and moisture barrier. Covered lanai along back of house offers water views of the canal + green grass with palm trees in front and back. Single space covered parking, with small shed + seawall, without a dock or boatlift. However, this home is on the more desirable "salt water" side, making access to the Gulf of Mexico, quick and unencumbered. This is one of the best values left in the community. Bayside Estates is the best kept secret of Fort Myers Beach. This friendly, active 55+ community is the crown jewel on the gulf coast. Bayside Estates is only 2.5 miles to the beach and is accessible by either car or boat--right from your driveway or neighboring private boat dock. Ride your bicycles to the beach. Drive your golf cart to neighbors for drinks and dinner. Pickle ball + tennis + bocce ball + community pool + boating + cruising to the Gulf of Mexico. Major retail vendors are within a very short driving distance for ultimate convenience. Bayside Estates is a mature person's playground and fun place to call home. People are friendly, and you will be warmly welcomed.
